Answer:

The center of the circle is

(-\frac{3}{2},2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the circle be

x^2+y^2+2ax+2by+c=0, where (-a,-b) is the center of this circle.

The points lying the circle must satisfy the equation of this circle.

A(0,0)

We substitute this point to get;

0^2+0^2+2a(0)+2b(0)+c=0

\implies c=0

B(-3,0)

(-3)^2+0^2+2a(-3)+2b(0)+c=0

\implies 9+0-6a+0+c=0

\implies -6a+c=-9

But c=0

\implies -6a=-9

\implies a=\frac{3}{2}

C(1,2)

1^2+2^2+2a(1)+2b(2)+c=0

1+4+2a+4b+c=0

2a+4b+c=-5

Put the value of 'a' and 'c' to find 'b'

2(\frac{3}{2})+4b+0=-5

3+4b+0=-5

4b=-5-3

4b=-8

b=-2

Hence the center of the circle is

(-\frac{3}{2},2)

Sum and Product of zeroes of the quadratic polynomial 16s² - 16s + 4 respectively is:Sum and Product of zeroes of the quadratic
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

The sum and product of zeroes are 1 and 1/4, respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial, let equalize the polynomial to zero and solve in consequence:

16\cdot s^{2}-16\cdot s + 4 = 0

By the General Quadratic Formula:

s_{1,2} = \frac{16\pm \sqrt{(-16)^{2}-4\cdot (16)\cdot (4)}}{2\cdot (16)}

s_{1,2} = \frac{1}{2}

Which means that zeroes are s_{1}=s_{2}=\frac{1}{2}.

The sum and product of zeroes are, respectively:

s_{1}+s_{2} =\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}

s_{1}+s_{2} = 1

s_{1}\cdot s_{2} = \left(\frac{1}{2} \right)^{2}

s_{1}\cdot s_{2} = \frac{1}{4}

The sum and product of zeroes are 1 and 1/4, respectively.
